For beginners, early learning is the key to learn the national standard dance well. In the whole learning process, this period is the practice stage of basic skills. Based on years of practice and teaching experience, Xiao Bian summed up the "four principles" for learning international standard dance
1. Master the basic steps. (this is the foundation of learning)
2. Learn to count the music beats and master the rhythm changes; in other words, have a sense of music. This is a necessary condition for study
3. Make sure of the foot shape. (this is the key to learning)
4. Practice the decomposition of each part until you are proficient. (this is an important means to draw inferences from one instance)
In the process of learning, it is worth noting that many practitioners are too eager for success, and ignore the basic concepts of each dance category. They think that as long as they can master the dance steps skillfully, they will be successful. In fact, it only takes a quarter or a fifth of the time to master a dance in the whole learning process. It's not difficult to learn a dance, but it's very difficult to reach the top. On the other hand, some people tend to pay too much attention to the study of written knowledge, while the content of some books is more dogmatic and lack of practical process, which is the taboo of learning dance.
